Orange Poppyseed Rolls | Chopped at Home Challenge
Tangy mandarin orange filling meets sweet, creamy marshmallow topping in these easy-to-make orange poppyseed rolls.
Ingredients
- 1 can sheet dough
- 1 cup marshmallows
- 1 cup mandarin oranges + juice
- ½ cup cashews chopped
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
- 4 tablespoons corn syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Strain the mandarin oranges, reserving about 1/4 cup of the juice. Combine the oranges and brown sugar in a skillet over high heat. Simmer until the juices have evaporated and the oranges start to caramelize. Drain any excess liquid and mash the oranges.
- Open the can of sheet dough and unroll it. Evenly spread half of the chopped cashews and the poppy seeds across the dough. Use a spoon to distribute the mashed orange mixture over the dough.
- Roll the dough into a log and slice it into eight evenly sized pinwheels. Place each roll in a greased 9x9 baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops of the rolls are golden brown and fully cooked.
- While the rolls are baking, use a double boiler to melt the marshmallows. Add the corn syrup, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the double boiler and stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool for a bit. Spread the marshmallow cream over the tops of the rolls. Serve warm and enjoy!
